      Good when Junior, Seniors look elsewhere

      Manager, content partnerships
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Facilities, Perks, Sexy brand - Young and fun team - You get to spend your whole day on YouTube!

      Cons

      - Somewhat myopic senior management of very senior, somewhat disconnected people - Whilst you can easily create projects and run with them, getting support is based on Politics - Somewhat of a popularity contest, nothing to do with how good you are or your ideas, but rather what you get your managers to think you did

      Amazing Company, Hit or Miss Management

      Product specialist manager
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great perks, they take care of their employees. A ton of flexibility. You are generally trusted to do what you need to do to get the job done. Lots of travel. Lots of cross-functional influence.

      Cons

      Managers are either amazing or terrible. I had 4 managers in 5 years (same position) and 2 were some of the greatest, most inspiring people ever. The other 2 were completely checked-out miserable sh*ts.

      Great workplace–but full-time work without full-time status

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      YouTube is a great place to work–not only for its perks–but also for the work you do. Management is very transparent and really tries to make sure that you are achieving your own personal goals while hitting all the company's goals.

      Cons

      Teams that are split between FTE's and Vendors might experience morale issues–especially if the temporary employees are dipping into full-time work. Some FTE's look-down at temporary employees.
